Why Travis Kelce Can't Support Taylor Swift at the Grammys: All About His Super Bowl Schedule
Here's how Travis Kelce's Kansas City Chiefs schedule aligns with the 2024 Grammys, where his girlfriend Taylor Swift is nominated for six awards
The most prestigious event in music and sports is exactly one week apart — and two of the biggest names in those respective fields, Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce, are being recognized at each of them.
The pop superstar is expected to attend the Grammy Awards on Feb. 4 in Los Angeles and the following Sunday, the NFL star will play in the 2024 Super Bowl on Feb. 11 in Las Vegas. Ahead of the music event, fans have speculated whether Kelce will support Swift in person.
It's a big night for the songstress, who already has 12 Grammy wins to her name. Not only is Swift a six-time nominee this year, but she's in a position to make history as the first artist with four album of the year wins should Midnights receive the award.
Though Kelce has shown support for Swift in the past, previously attending her successful Eras Tour, the Kansas City Chiefs player has confirmed he won't be able to attend the Grammys amid his busy Super Bowl schedule.

Swift's attendance at the Super Bowl, meanwhile, is no walk in the park either! In fact, the pop star could soon double as a time traveler as she'd have to fly from her Eras Tour concert in Tokyo to Las Vegas in less than 24 hours to get to the stadium in time for kickoff.
Should the hitmaker complete the remarkable feat, her presence at the Big Game would mark the 13th time she's attended a game to cheer Kelce on this season.
Read on for a breakdown of Kelce and the Kansas City Chiefs' schedule ahead of the Super Bowl and what Kelce has said about missing the Grammys.
